Strider 2 Recompiled: a PlayStation static recompilation

Strider 2 Recompiled uses psxrecomp to generate C from the US PlayStation release of Strider 2 and compiles a playable build locally from the user's disc. Its title-specific work includes symbol mapping and framework fixes for simulation pacing, line drawing on the stage briefing screen and interlaced menu text. The development notes describe comparisons with PlayStation reference implementations.
